Mortal Blood First
"Clouds!"
The Clan Elder of the Tao Clan panicked and hurriedly ordered the Tao Clan's doctors to treat Tao Yunxiao.
However, the medical capabilities in the Great Wilderness were extremely limited. Faced with this severe injury caused by extreme anger and depletion of vital energy, what effective methods could these Mongolian doctors possibly offer?
It's just using those good medicines to make medicinal soup. A hundred-year-old ginseng and lingzhi are highly nourishing for low-level warriors, but for a warrior at the fifth level of mortal blood, the effect will be greatly reduced.
The members of the Lian Clan's Warrior Reserve Camp looked at Tao Yunxiao, who had fallen unconscious on the ground, and the busy Clan Elder the Tao Clan with sympathetic eyes.
They still vividly remembered the scene when their master, Lian Chengyu, vomited blood after failing to break through to the Purple Blood Realm. How similar that scene was to Tao Yunxiao vomiting blood now...
However, their master Lian Chengyu, is in an even worse situation. He hasn't uttered a single word since yesterday, and he's probably crippled...
Thinking of all this, the few people in the Lian Clan's Warrior Reserve Camp looked at Yi Yun with a deep sense of fear. This boy, who was only twelve years old, was simply a demon. He was too terrifying. Not to mention that he was strong enough to kill others, even if he didn't hit you, he could anger you to death, make you stupid, or drive you crazy!
At this moment, on the arena, Yi Yun had already swallowed a Jade Spirit Pill.
There are no special rules for swallowing the Jade Spirit Pill; you can simply chew it up and swallow it.
This perfectly round, emerald-green pill melted instantly upon entering his mouth, transforming into a stream of emerald-green liquid that flowed into Yi Yun's stomach. Immediately, a fragrant aroma wafted out, permeating his very being. Yi Yun felt the Medicinal Power spreading throughout his body, as if every pore on his skin was opening up.
"Brother Yi, quickly shrink your pores. Don't let the Medicinal Power of the Jade Spirit Pill escape. These are all good things," Zhang Tan instructed from the side, his eyes gleaming with envy.
Yi Yun nodded and, as Zhang Tan instructed, shrunk her pores and cleared her meridians to allow the Medicinal Power of the Jade Spirit Pill to circulate within her body.
He felt his meridians were flowing smoothly, and his right fist felt warm, as if it were enveloped by a scorching energy. After a while, he felt a tingling and itchy sensation. Yi Yun knew that his wound was healing.
This Jade Spirit Pill is indeed a top-quality medicine!
Yi Yun couldn't help but look up at the flying boat in the sky, feeling sincerely grateful to Lin Xin Tong. He also knew that his injuries could actually be healed even without the Jade Spirit Pill.
But Lin Xin Tong specially gave him the Jade Spirit Pill, and he remembered this kindness.
"Brother Yi, now that you've reached the pinnacle of Body Refinement and your pulse is like a dragon, you'll need even more energy to break through to the Purple Blood Realm than others. After the Medicinal Power of this Jade Spirit Pill is integrated into your body, refine it slowly. Don't rush it; take several months to absorb it gradually, otherwise it will only have the opposite effect."
Zhang Tan was completely open and honest with Yi Yun. In Zhang Tan's eyes, Yi Yun was no longer just his student, but someone worthy of his friendship.
Both Yi Yun's future prospects and Lin Xin Tong 'Yi Yun high regard for him clearly demonstrate this point.
As for the Tao Clan, only Hu Ya was worthy of Zhang Tan's slight attention, but that was all.
As for someone like Tao Yunxiao, Zhang Tan couldn't be bothered with him anymore.
"Brother Yi, tomorrow at an auspicious time, I will confer upon you the title of National Scholar. In fact, the real conferment ceremony can only be completed outside the Great Wilderness, at the Brocade Dragon Guard camp. Tomorrow, I will only give you the National Scholar Seal, the conferment letter, and tell you the boundaries of your fiefdom."
Zhang Tan patted Yi Yun on the shoulder, "Work hard! You've attracted Purple Qi Coming from the East, and Miss Lin admires you. Your future is limitless. In the future, I might even have to rely on you, little brother Yi, haha."
Zhang Tan laughed as he spoke. Judging from the way he addressed Yi Yun, Zhang Tan had already subtly placed Yi Yun on an equal footing.
Zhang Tan is a commander of the Brocade Dragon Guard, while Yi Yun has just passed the Divine Kingdom Grand Selection, yet they are on equal footing!
This is not surprising, though. Zhang Tan is National Scholar, and Yi Yun is also National Scholar. They are both National Scholar and nobles of the same Noble Title!
Not far away, the Clan Elder of the Tao Clan, witnessing this scene, all subconsciously swallowed hard.
Zhang Tan was someone of such high status that even the chieftain of the Tao Clan would bow respectfully to him and speak in a humble tone. Yet now, Zhang Tan was patting Yi Yun on the shoulder, calling him "Little Brother Yi" repeatedly, and even referring to himself as "Old Brother"!
What does this mean? At least verbally, Zhang Tan has already acknowledged Yi Yun as his brother. How are the Clan Elder of the Tao Clan supposed to face Yi Yun, a man of similar status to Zhang Tan?
These respected Clan Elder of the Tao Clan were all dumbfounded at this moment.
In the past, if they were to grace a small tribe like the Lian Clan with their presence, they would be treated like gods. The tribal leader would have to personally greet them, bowing and scraping. Even if they stretched out their feet, countless people would kneel and lick them.
As for the common people of the small tribes, they didn't even have the right to look up to them. But now, Yi Yun, such a nobody, has suddenly become an equal to Zhang Tan. Are they supposed to bow to Yi Yun?
The thought of having to bow to a twelve-year-old child made these Clan Elder feel as if they had swallowed a fly.
"If we can't afford to offend them, can't we at least avoid them?"
The Clan Elder had already decided that they would avoid Yi Yun from now on; otherwise, they would rather kill them than have to speak to him in a humble manner.
At this moment, atop the Floating Sky Ship, Old Man Su was still tugging at his beard, looking pained. Hmm... he was heartbroken over his two Jade Spirit Pills.
Standing next to Su Jie, Lin Xin Tong was speechless; it was only two Jade Spirit Pills.
"Master, you can refine a whole batch of Jade Spirit Pill in the time it takes to skip one meal." Although Old Man Su was Savage Heaven Master, he was also skilled in alchemy.
Old Man Su blew his beard and said, "What do you mean by refining a whole batch of Jade Spirit Pill? Refining medicine requires good materials, and besides, it also wastes fire. The fire I use to refine medicine is the Earth Core Fire, and activating the Fire Array and such requires a lot of Desolate Bone Energy... Martial arts training requires so many resources, we have to be more frugal. That brat only cut his hand, a little bit of Golden Wound Medicine from the Brocade Dragon Guard should be enough, using Jade Spirit Pill is too wasteful."
Old Man Su grumbled and complained. From the moment they met until now, Old Man Su and Yi Yun had never gotten along.
Lin Xin Tong, listening from the side, found it both funny and absurd, and simply kept quiet.
"Xin Tong, that old bastard Marquis Wen Yun has already set up an array in the Great Wilderness. I will be setting off tomorrow to help him activate the Marquis Wen Yun Ancient Formation. The ancient secret realm is fraught with danger, and I cannot take you there. So you will have to be on your own these next few days. Be careful in everything you do, and if you encounter any danger, use the life talisman I gave you."
Old Man Su gave her his earnest instructions, Lin Xin Tong nodded repeatedly, "Master, please don't worry."
"I hereby declare Yi Yun the number one in the Mortal Blood Realm of this Divine Kingdom Grand Selection! He shall become an elite of the Brocade Dragon Guard and be conferred the National Scholar!"
On the arena, Zhang Tan announced Yi Yun's results to tens of thousands of people.
Tao Yunxiao had already been carried away by the tribal Clan Elder.
The tens of thousands of spectators around them were at a loss for words. The Tao Clan had always been extremely proud, and they were the absolute kings within a radius of thousands of miles. Now, Zhang Tan's words had shattered that pride.
"Brother Yi, the Brocade Dragon Guard is on a mission in Yunhuang this time and will be staying for a long time. We cannot take you to the Brocade Dragon Guard camp in the Central Plains to receive your investiture for the time being. You can stay with my Brocade Dragon Guard army and wait in the Great Wilderness for some time!"
"I will follow your arrangements, Commander." Yi Yun naturally had no objections.
Zhang Tan nodded. He never asked Yi Yun what the relationship between him and Lin Xin Tong was.
Zhang Tan knew that he shouldn't ask questions about someone like Lin Xin Tong. He even deliberately downplayed the matter of Lin Xin Tong giving medicine to Yi Yun and never brought it up again. At that time, only Zhang Tan heard Lin Xin Tong message.
Zhang Tan had a vague feeling that Lin Xin Tong didn't want too many people to know about these things.
Therefore, Zhang Tan has decided that he will readily admit that the pills were given to him by Lin Xin Tong on a whim, and then he will decide for himself how to distribute them to Yi Yun.
Zhang Tan vaguely knew that the forces behind Lin Xin Tong were complex and intertwined, involving matters that truly concerned the upper echelons of the Divine Kingdom, far beyond the comprehension and involvement of insignificant figures like them.
Regarding the previous rumors that Lin Xin Tong might become the Crown Prince, regardless of whether the rumors are true or false, it's better to believe them than not. Zhang Tan wouldn't gossip about Lin Xin Tong's relationships with others.
Previously, when Zhang Tan gave Yi Yun the Jade Spirit Pill Lin Xin Tong, Zhang Tan always transmitted his voice to Yi Yun to prevent others from overhearing. (To be continued~^~)
